Madhavi,
You don't need to include the path and executable name in the ExeCommand
attribute's value. Only parameters for the executable:
<CustomAction Id="DoSomething" BinaryKey="MyCA"
ExeCommand='"D:\Samples\EnvironmentConfig.xml" "RPP" "BACKUP"'
Execute="deferred"
Return="check" HideTarget="no" Impersonate="no" />
If the source you provided below is complete, I suspect that the real issue is
that you don't have any features, nor components to install. Try to add one
feature with one component in it.

Subject: [WiX-users] Custom Action is not running
Hi All,
I have written the below custom action .
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Wix xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi";>
<Product Id="bfb13c62-6766-47a5-b1b4-f0fc1694ba58"
Name="CustomActionsSetup" Language="1033" Version="1.0.0.0"
Manufacturer="CustomActionsSetup"
UpgradeCode="5a508d87-31ff-4b19-b64e-30014cd9fe70">
<Package InstallerVersion="200" Compressed="yes" />
<Media Id="1" Cabinet="CustomActionsSetup.cab"
EmbedCab="yes" />
<Property Id="MYRPPBKPATH"><![CDATA[D:\]]></Property>
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="MYPATH" Name=".">
<!-- <Component Id="Component1"
Guid="{bfb13c62-6766-47a5-b1b4-f0fc1694ba59}">
<File Id="ReadMe" DiskId="1" Name="Readme.txt"
Source="Readme.txt" Vital="yes" KeyPath="yes" />
</Component>-->
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
<Binary Id="MyCA"
SourceFile="D:\Samples\CustomActionsSetup\CustomActionsSetup\CustomAction.exe"/>
<CustomAction Id="DoSomething" BinaryKey="MyCA"
ExeCommand='D:\Samples\CustomActionsSetup\CustomActionsSetup\CustomAction.exe
"D:\Samples\EnvironmentConfig.xml" "RPP" "BACKUP"' Execute="deferred"
Return="check" HideTarget="no" Impersonate="no" />
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="DoSomething" Before="InstallFinalize" />
</InstallExecuteSequence>
</Product>
</Wix>
My Exe is also returning the exit code. But the custom action is not
running.
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Madhavi.
